@AmitabhDey thanks a lot for sharing with us. as a tourist, there how much travel cost. any religious people can visit there ??

@MahabubMunna Thank You for your comment and query. Sorry for late reply.

Travel and trekking cost in mountain and hill area of Uttarakhand is very affordable. And there is no religious restrictions in anywhere of Uttarakhand, even not in any temple. Person from any religion can visit any religious temple. In Devprayag I have not entered in any temple. I am not a religious person. I have visited these places just for love of mother nature and for watching the sculptural beauty of 500 to 1500 years old stone-made temple. And I love trekking and hiking. I had also visited Rangamati and Cox's Bazar of Bangladesh. Very soon I will publish Rangamati Photograph in Local Guides Connect forum.

Travel Cost Approx.:
Delhi to Haridwar Bus/Train Fare INR 500 to 1300.
Delhi to Haridwar/Hrishikesh 4 seater Cab Fare INR 3000 to 5000.
From Hrishikesh you can hire 4 seater sedan car per day basis. Rent per day 2500 to 3500.
8 seater SUV rent per day 3500 to 4500.
16 seater Traveller Van rent per day 6000 to 7500.
Problem is Non-Veg food hardly available in Haridwar, Hrishikesh, Dehradun and Mussouri. And in mountain area only Veg food available.
You can easily avail Helicopter Service also. Obviously with prior booking. I had booked Helicopter for my 6 Bangladeshi relatives.
